In my personal opinion, having a trading target per day has advantages. The advantage is that traders can control their lust when trading. So traders are not too over-trading. If you don't have a daily target, definitely open the position. uncontrolled. Which should be profitable today, but eventually it loses again. This is important we have a target. If the target is met, immediately close the chart. So the psychologist is not disturbed. Traders can also fill with other activities, so as not to get bored . Right now I am starting to implement this method, so that my trading is controlled and avoids over tarding.

I disagree with your opinion.
Because in my opinion, setting a daily target will only burden our psychology. Maybe you can be happy because your target today can be fulfilled, it also happens because the market is trending. But what if the market is sideways and your target is not met? Will you accumulate it with the target tomorrow?

Say this, your daily target is $ 5. For Monday your target is fulfilled. Tuesday your target is not fulfilled because the market conditions are bad, then you will add them for Wednesday?
In other words on Wednesday your target is $ 10?

good or not it depends on the type of trader, if the full time trader in the sense of focusing on trading is very good and if the part time I feel is not good too bro, because it is draining and time consuming and must continue to focus

i totally agree ( i been there...) . daily targets will keep pressing you to trade even if the market is shitty and then you give all the previous day profits because you've been chasing the "daily target" :)  not this way..

some time ago I was still using the daily target. but it actually made me always in a hurry in trading. finally I change by changing the target to weekly and making me more relaxed.

Good morning ... For profit targets we can adjust capital, because with us trading capital is minimal if we force for big profits is certainly risky. Traders must be flexible so that capital is safe and there is income.

a very good step, by minimizing the profit from the profit trading it is not how much but our funds can be safer, because management money is maintained.

Having a daily target is good and encourages us to discipline trading, but we must pay attention to psychological problems because daily targets tend to make psychology depressed must meet the target every day so that it will make us push ourselves for transactions so that the target is achieved.

this is good opinion, but the problem is to find the opportunity in the market, because not everyday we can find nice set upp in the market. Daily target is good option if you are a scalper

Good afternoon ... With us always trying to trade in safe prices, I think we can press the risk of loss as little as possible. With us there is always effort, whatever capital, we can manage well with tangible results.

That's right because of that I always convey to beginner traders that you should not use daily targets because they will usually interfere with psychological trading.

Actually it is okay to have a daily target but it doesn't need to be forced because not every day there will be a good trading signal for entry so it still follows the system we have.
